Clean Edge report projects growth in global biofuel industry

Clean Edge Inc., a clean-tech research and advisory firm, has released a report finding that although 2012 was a difficult year for the clean energy industry, the fundamental global market drivers for clean technology remain largely intact moving into 2013. The report, titled “Clean Energy Trends 2013,” notes that while there was a renewed focus on scalable projects, resulting in record annual deployment in the biofuel, solar and wind sectors, combined global revenue for those industries expanded by only 1 percent last year.
